31 Days of Happiness Countdown: Day 1

Hello and welcome to Day 1 of Upworthy’s 31 Days of Happiness Countdown! Each period between Dec. 1 and Dec. 31, we’re sharing storeys we hope will bring elation, smiles, and humour into our lives and yours. It’s been a requesting time for a lot of us, so why not intention it on a high memorandum with a little bit of merriment? Check back tomorrow for another installment ! em>

What better style to kick situations off now than with the unifying power of puppies and kittens( and sometimes piggies )? We promised you smiles and rejoice, and em> these charming characters more than deliver.

Founded by Tina Marie Lythgoe, Josh and His Critters is a California-based animal extricate and rehab group with a focus on rescuing swine that got a bumpy begin in life. There are a lot of cute animal accounts on social media, but following J& HC on social media is special kind of charm, with Lythgoe chronicling the day-to-day lives of whichever animals are currently in her care.

“Our mission is to save as numerous animals as is practicable, ” Lythgoe wrote on the J& HC website. “Even the ones that parties examine pests.”

I’m peculiarly fond of Jamison, the Australian Shepherd with a cleft palate taken in by Lythgoe when he was just a insignificant puppy.

For more cuteness to ensure producing a smile or two to your face this holiday season, follow Josh and His Critters on Instagram and Facebook . em>
